The Apple Pickers - Edition of 40

Handmade woodcut print 'The Apple Pickers'.

In this woodcut print, Victorian-era apple trees stretch toward the sky, their branches heavy with autumn's promise. Below their generous canopy, a scene of timeless industry unfolds – generations of farmers work in dignified concert, transforming their harvest into precious cider at a rustic work table.

The careful composition tells a story of a day's rhythm: the abandoned picnic blanket with its scattered cups speaks of a shared midday respite, while the steadfast farm dog keeps faithful watch over the farmer's labor. Young hands work alongside weathered ones, passing down age-old knowledge of when to pick, how to press, and the precise moment when fruit becomes something altogether more magical.

Each element has been meticulously carved to honor these agricultural traditions, capturing a moment when time moved more slowly and the turning of seasons was marked by shared ritual and reward.

This print celebrates not just the making of cider, but the entire ceremony of autumn harvest – the gathering of family, the sharing of labor, and the sweet satisfaction of transforming the land's bounty through time-honored methods.

Each print in this limited edition of 40 is individually handprinted, carrying forward the story of agricultural heritage and the timeless connection between land, labor, and community.

This print is printed by hand on a 250gr Hahnemuhle paper, that has a warm undertone. There is a border of 3 cm around the image.
